Good news for new fingerpickers - you can play great blues parts using notes that are (probably) right under your fingers like we do in this Piedmont style example.

With certain styles of acoustic blues (Ragtime, Piedmont, etc) there's alot going on. You'll play chords, melody and the bass line all at the same time. The cool thing is, often you can play really cool parts without having to leave familiar chord shapes that you (probably) already know. In this lesson, I'll share an example in the Piedmont / Etta Baker style that will help you bring together the elements of good fingerpicking without having to fly around the fretboard.
